Young Master Mo, Are You Done Kissing?

Right before she hung up, Mo Jingshen abruptly said, “A portion of the divorce agreement needs to be amended. When you’re free, come by and sign a new copy before you talk about going on our separate ways.”

The woman’s voice on the other side of the call was as mild as ever: “I don’t need anything. I created so much trouble for you previously, now that it’s time for a farewell, I should return all of the things I owe you. I’ve already returned all of your investments. As for the rest, thank you for once protecting me from any possible repercussions in my work. In the future, I’ll be working hard on my own. Right now, time is as precious as money. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go and busy myself now.”

Mo Jingshen: “Your studio is already doing very well. There’s no need to work too hard.”

Ji Nuan did not speak. She was quiet for a moment.

He could hear her breathing, accompanied by the chilly wind. It was light and soft.

“Mo Jingshen, I know that you’re still you. You’ve always been you.”

From the start, she clearly understood that he had never changed. Even when he came to know of those difficult ten years for her, he never once left, nor did he die.

Mo Jingshen was silent for a moment before he lightly spoke the three words: “Is that so.”

Ji Nuan spoke in the soft tone she always used when she was by his side, “It’s late, I won’t disturb you any further. Goodbye.”

Mo Jingshen: “All right.”

The call was instantly hung up.

Everything returned to its silence.

The day after Ji Nuan had sent the divorce letter to Mo Jingshen, the Yu Garden was sealed. No one could enter, and all of the helpers were dismissed overnight.

Auntie Chen received a large sum of money. As an old helper from the Mo family, she was supposed to return directly to the Mo home. However, she felt too ashamed to meet Elder Mo and was fearful that he wouldn’t take the news of their divorce well. She truly did not dare to face him, and because Mr. Mo did not plan to let her go back to the Mo home, she decided to return to her hometown.

Right before leaving, Auntie Chen visited Mo Nuan Studio. At the time, Ji Nuan was having a meeting with the people on England’s side. After the meeting ended, she stepped out to see that Auntie Chen was waiting outside.

Ji Nuan personally received her, but Auntie Chen did not even sit down, nor did she drink the tea. She watched Ji Nuan, who was dressed in her professional workwear and had a rosy complexion; it appeared as though she was emotionally well. Auntie Chen watched her for a long moment before saying, “Mr. Mo has sealed the Yu Garden. No one is allowed to enter now.”

“I know, I heard.”

Auntie Chen originally thought she had only come to look at Ji Nuan. After all, once she returned to her hometown, there was a chance she would ever meet her again. However, upon seeing Ji Nuan’s composed expression, Auntie Chen’s eyes immediately turned red. “That night, after you called, Mr. Mo smashed his phone.”

Ji Nuan did not reply.

“None of us dared to leave our rooms, but none of us were able to sleep either. Mr. Mo smashed every visible item in the Yu Garden. The next day, he ordered us to clean up the mess on the floor. The entire Yu Garden has been emptied. There’s nothing left.”

Ji Nuan was expressionless. She softly blew at the tea in her cup and did not reply.

“Mrs. Mo…”

“Auntie Chen, in the future, there won’t be any more Mrs. Mo. You should call me Miss Ji.”
